IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. Read all instructions before operating.
2. To protect against the risk of electrical shock, do not put the cord, plug or motor drive in water or other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
4. Unplug from the outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
5. Avoid contacting moving parts.
6. Do not operate your ice cream freezer with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions, is dropped, or is damaged in any manner. Return the ice cream freezer to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.
7. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
8. Do not use an electric ice cream freezer outdoors.
9. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter or touch hot surfaces.
10. Do not operate your ice cream freezer dry. Always have ice cream mixture in the can when you plug your freezer in.
11. The ice cream can should be thoroughly towel-dried after use and washing. If the ice cream can is left to “air dry”, water spots may appear.

To Use

Before Using First Time:

Wash all parts except the motor drive

1. Place the ice bucket on the motor drive and rotate until it drops securely in place, engaging the locating lugs and drive shaft.
2. Pour chilled ice cream mixture into the cooled can. Fill can only be 1/2 full, as the mixture will expand during freezing.
3. Insert the dasher. Be sure that the bottom of the dasher fits the indentation at the bottom of the ice cream can.
4. Place the filled ice bucket. Be sure the can engages the drive hub of the bucket.
5. Place the support arm cover over the dasher stem and snap into the dual rim recesses of the ice bucket.
6. Plug the power cord into a 120-volt AC outlet.
7. While the ice cream freezer is running, pour 1 cup of cold water into the ice bucket. Distribute 1 tray of ice cubes uniformly around the ice cream can. Sprinkle 1/2 cup table salt I Drive Hub over a layer of ice. Continue layering a tray of ice cubes with 1/2 cup salt on top of the ice bucket. Pour 1 cup of cold water over the top layer. As ice melts, add more layers of ice and salt to maintain the original level.
8. Ice cream should churn approximately 25-40 minutes or until the motor stops. Unplug the unit. Note: Occasionally, your ice cream freezer may not stop when the ice cream mixture is complete. If this happens, unplug after 50 minutes. Should your ice cream freezer stop before churning is complete (approximately 25-40 minutes), check to see if large cubes are jammed against the rotating ice cream can.
9. Remove the support arm cover by unsnapping at the dual rim recesses of the ice bucket. Carefully lift the ice cream can out of the ice bucket. Wipe off ice and salt.
10. Lift out the dasher and scrape clean with a rubber spatula. Pack down the ice cream into a can.

Before Using First Time

Wash all parts except the motor drive

1. Pour chilled ice cream mixture into the cooled can. The fill can only be 3/4 full, as the mixture will expand during freezing.
2. Insert the dasher. Be sure that the bottom of the dasher fits the indentation at the bottom of the ice cream can.

7. Continue adding layers of ice, with salt between layers, until the ice level reaches the top of the rotating ice cream can. Note: Should the ice cream freezer stop before churning is complete (approximately 20-40 minutes), check to see if large ice cubes are jammed against the rotating ice cream can.
8. Ice cream should churn for about 20-40 minutes or until the motor stops. Unplug and remove the motor drive.
9. Clear ice and salt away from top of ice cream can. Wipe cover carefully to remove salt and water before removing. Lift out dasher and scrape clean with a rubber spatula. Pack down ice cream into can.

To Harden And Ripen Ice Cream

1. Pack ice cream down into the can and replace the cover. Put the cork into the hole on the cover.
2. Drain off salt water through the drainage hole in the side of the bucket.
3. Repack ice and salt layers (see “To Use,” item 7), covering the entire can, including the cover.
4. Cover the bucket with a folded towel or a few newspapers for insulation and allow to harden for two to three hours. Hardening time varies with the type of ice cream mixture used.

Home Freezer Method (For All Models)

Ice Cream Can

1. Pack ice cream down into can and replace cover. Put cork into hole on cover. For 2 quart.model, cover can with storage lid provided.
2. Place in the home freezer for several hours.

Plastic Containers

2. Place in the home freezer for several hours.

Important Points

• To achieve a smooth-textured ice cream, follow the ice and salt amounts indicated. As the ice melts and the ice level decreases, add small amounts of ice to maintain the original level.
• To loosen jammed ice, unplug the power cord and twist the ice cream can several times. Plug in the cord to restart the churning process. If jamming continues, add 2 cups of water to the bucket.
• 2-quart model: Ice cream should churn approximately 25-40 minutes or until the motor stops. Occasionally, your ice cream freezer may not stop when the ice cream mixture is complete. If this happens, unplug after 50 minutes. DO NOT ALLOW THE UNIT TO RUN LONGER THAN 50 MINUTES.
• 4, 5, and 6 quart models: Ice cream should churn approximately 20-40 minutes or until the motor stops. If you choose to churn less than the ~ volume of the liquid recipe, the motor may not stop. Occasionally, check the mixture until the ice cream looks like fluffy mashed potatoes. Unplug and remove the motor drive.
• Drain hole (4, 5, and 6 quart models only): Check frequently to make sure salt water flows freely through the hole. A plugged drain hole may allow salt water to seep into the can and ruin the ice cream.
• Set a 4, 5, or 6-quart ice cream bucket in the sink or above the sink drain to catch excess water.

Hints

• Ice (4, 5, and 6 quart models): About 15 to 20 pounds of crushed, cracked, or chipped ice is used for each batch of ice cream. For best results, if ice cubes are used, they should be crushed. Place cubes in a cloth bag and crush with a mallet, or use an electric ice crusher. The finer the ice, the smoother the ice cream texture.
• The wood bucket (Models 8455 and 8550) should be soaked in water prior to use to swell the wood and seal the seams.
• Firmness of ice cream depends on the mixture used, room temperature, size of ice, and temperature of the mixture before it’s churned. For best results, place ingredients in a metal ice cream can, mix, and chill in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight.
• Too soft: If churning takes longer than 40 minutes or the ice cream is too mushy, add more ice and 6 tablespoons of salt to stimulate the cold transfer to the ice cream can. Repeat ifice cream is still too mushy. This procedure should stiffen the ice cream to a fluffy mashed potato texture.
• Too hard or lumpy: When churning time is less than 20 minutes lind the ice cream is coarse and lumpy throughout, try adding less salt and finer chopped ice.)
• Homemade ice cream is very dense. One quart weighs about the same as 2 quarts of commercial ice cream. Don’t be surprised if your homemade ice cream gets very hard in your freezer. Simply soften, if desired, by placing in the refrigerator 10-15 minutes before serving.
• The metal ice cream can must be thoroughly dried with a towel after washing. If the can is left to “air dry”, water spots may appear. (See ”To Clean,” below.)
• Alcohol will inhibit freezing. Use flavorings or extracts.
• When preparing a cooked ice cream recipe with milk and eggs, cook on low to medium heat, stirring constantly. Gradually stir 1 to 2 cups of the hot mixture into the beaten eggs, then slowly pour eggs into the remaining hot mixture, stirring constantly.

To Clean

• Motor drive: Unplug. Never put the motor drive in water. Wipe with a slightly damp cloth.
• Ice Cream Can, Cover, and Dasher: Wash in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Important: Ice cream should be towel dried; if left to “air dry,” water spots may appear. Do not replace the cover until the ice cream can is dry. Do not put any parts in the dishwasher.
• Ice Cream Bucket: Clean thoroughly to remove saltwater residue after every use.
• Drive Shaft (Model 8200 only): Replace on motor drive after cleaning to prevent loss.
